I took many pictures of wombats on my trip to Tasmania. Many of those shots were taken with my fisheye and wide angle lenses, showing the wombat in its environment. Others were taken with the sun’s rays spilling over the horizon with beautifully colored clouds in the background. But with an animal as endearing as a wombat, sometimes a simple, straightforward portrait is all it takes. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/160th of a second
Lovely image.
It’s a good job you didn’t post this one before Xmas or all d kids would have thought it was a live Teddybear & asked for it.
400mm & that sharp with all those little hairs? You must have a steady Hand/Tripod!

How could it get sweeter than that?
Stubby legged and stout!
Loveable indeed 💜

Thanks Con. Had the camera on the ground for this one.
Any way to tame them? I want a wombat.
Yes. People have them as pets. Although they do like to nibble.
I love this guy!
